You have 6 fouls in basketball (some leagues you have 5 fouls). When you foul while someone shoots and they miss than they get 2 free throws. If they make it than they get an AND-1, which means 1 shot. If you shoot a three-pointer and you make it, and get fouled than you also get an AND-1.

There is also another league called the WNBA, which is where the women play. They have the same rules as the NBA. When you get drafted on a team they offer you a contract with how much money you will get for a random amount of years. That is all the basics of basketball for the NBA, and the WNBA.
